    Hi! I`m twelve years old, and i can`t found club or shop that market currently guns, ammo and kits in my city. I live in Kiev (Ukraine) and built plastik models. Then I attempt to build RC plane, make rocket with powder engines... Can you help me with my first ship? It`s maybe rocket cruiser "Slava" ("Moskva"). And sorry about my bad English.

    Ahoy there Sergey, it sounds like you've got a tough challenge ahead. With no club or other skippers nearby, you'll have to do a lot yourself. Founding your own club is difficult, but there are several skippers on this forum with experience in the task.

    Your first challenge will be to build yourself a ship. What sorts of tools can you use? What sorts of tools will you have access to? Without being in the same room as you, my ability to teach shipbuilding is somewhat limited, but I can certainly help talk you through the process of building a ship. There are also a lot of threads on this forum documenting the construction of other ships, which can be a huge help too.

    Ahoy, mate! It looks like you have a ship that is impressive. Rockets, though, are dangerous. Best stick to BB's. I dont believe they sell those parts in store, so you might want to look on Strike Models and find another ship. They also sell parts, but I dont know if it ships outside USA. Cheers.
